Now that this achievement is finally in view, some are making plans to contimue their education, while others gotheir in- dividual ways. We shall not soon forget the friendship we have made nor the events which have enriched our school years together, These creative years have provided a foundation and we hope that as we achieve some measure of success in our lives, we shall be able to reflect praise and honor upon our school.

We haven't had much time to do things in, but we hope that our history three years from now will be more worthy of your notice, We c ame to our first day in Marion High School a bit mixed up, but when we found that everybody else was in the same predicament we soon felt quite at home, It took a few weeks for us to learn the tricks of the trade such as: how to run to lunch without being stampeded, how to always bow and scrape to a supposedly dignified senior, how to bribe seventh and eighth graders for their place in the lunch line, how to slug the coke machine, how to get somebody to answer home-room roll call for you so that you can have another five minutes of shut-eye, and how to get along with our respective teacher by laughing at their Qcornyj jokes. We think we're pretty sharp on such matters now and could probably teach the upperclassmen a few tricks, We participated in home-coming activities, and by coming in third we showed the sophomores that although we are least, we are not always last. We know that a lot lies ahead of us in the future years of high school. We are looking forward to the good times of our next three years, and especially our senior year, with eagerness and the desire and hope of making the best of them.
